Totally depraved. To think people looked up to her as a community leader.

DALLAS — A Texas pastor caught by police with a laptop and fur coats said she was protecting the valuables, not stealing them from the home of a parishioner.

Sandy McGriff, cofounder of the Church of the Living God, told The Dallas Morning News on Monday that she “used poor judgment” when she entered a church member’s home through a broken window and removed valuable property.
